New York Sun: We do not believe
in prohibition, either in theory or
in practice. The principle of the
Maine law is all wrong. In its
practical operation it has been prov
cd to be deplorably. Intellectual as a
temperance measure. If we believ-
ed that the principle was all right,
we nevertheless should not favor the
adoption OF prohibitory law in this
State, because we should have no
confidence ia the possibility of en-
forcing it. If we believed, on the
other hand, that prohibition could
be enforced, we should oppose the
system because it would be oppress
i've, unjust, and restrictive of pers-
onal rights. But our opinion OF
prohibition does not diminish our
respect for those who advocate it,
honestly believing it to be the right
remedy for evils which everybody
acknowledges. Nor doesstour opin-
ion of prohibition prevent US from
watching with interest and report
ing with scrupulous accuracy the
growth of the prohibition move
ment,

THE friends of tariff reform held
a mammoth meeting in New York
on Wednesday. The most active
promoter and speaker at thi smeet-
ing was jackson S. Schultz, prom
inent republican, largely interested
in the manufacture of leather in
PENNSYLVANIA. He has fouud that
protection does not protect, and the
necessity of enlarging the markets
for the native products.
If one hundred millions is taken
from the people by taxation, hid
away in the treasury vaults
every year so much money is taken
from the wages of honest labor.
Take no more money from the peo-
pie, by custom taxes and internal
revenue than will economically and
honestly administer the govern
ment. When the amount necessary
for this purpose is known, that the
rest of the money remain with the
men and women that toll for their
daily wages.

An Eventful Business Career.

An Eventful Business Career.
Not many houses in any line Of business
in this country can show business career
extending over century. The drug firm
Of Hazard, Hazard 81 Co. is one Of half a
dozen notable examples in this city. Its
business was established in 17S0, and since
1921 members Of the Hazard family have
been prominent in Its management. The
firms name has just been changed from
Caswell, Hazard II Co., but the partners
and management remain the same az for
years past The business career of the firm
has been marked by integrity In the treat
ment OF customers and consequent pros
perity. They have two places Of business
In this city, one at the corner OF Fifth
avenue and Twenty-fourth street, and the
other at the corner OF Sixth avenue aud
Thirty-ninth street. At both places a
system of checks and revision is In vogue
in the compounding Of prescriptions, by
which there is as nearly absolute protection
from error as human ingenuity can devise,
The special preparations OF the firm In
medicine and toilet articles, as we'll as their
line OF surgical instruments, are known all
over the country. The high character OF
the house has been attained by the strictest
attention to business and by merit. -Ne,O
